Tree kangaroos live in the tropical rainforests of northern Australia and New Guinea.

Two species live in Australia and are restricted largely to high elevation rainforests. This allows them to keep cool and obtain moisture from under the rainforest canopy. A rise in temperatures from global warming will greatly reduce their habitats. Tree kangaroos will be forced up the mountains and restricted to the highest peaks, putting more pressure on their already threatened populations.

They may also be threatened by increased severity of weather events like tropical cyclones. Sudden and dramatic changes to their habitats makes it difficult for animals to forage for food, even for months after a cyclone has passed, because of the loss and destruction of their habitat and resources.

Not so much is known about the habitats of the New Guinea tree kangaroos, so it is unknown if they too are restricted to high elevation rainforests.
